Taguig police on Monday reported the arrest of four suspects in separate operations linked to convenience store robberies and a shooting incident in Barangay New Lower Bicutan.
Two suspects were arrested following an investigation into a hold-up at an Alfamart store along M.L. Quezon Street in Barangay Wawa at around 2:20 a.m. on March 10.
Police said two men entered the store, declared a hold-up, and threatened employees while one pointed a firearm at the cashier and the other took about P11,000 in cash and several chocolates.
Follow-up operations led to the arrest of the suspects, identified by their aliases “Axel” and “Bogie,” in San Pedro, Laguna. Authorities recovered a 9mm pistol, a magazine, and eight rounds of ammunition.
In a separate operation, police also arrested two suspects, “Bogz” and “Hendrich,” in connection with a March 13 shooting in Barangay New Lower Bicutan, with a .45 caliber pistol and ammunition recovered during the arrest.
